7. Mounting the rain gauge
Before mounting the rain gauge, be sure the rain gauge & monitor are within the transmission effective
range and batteries are installed.
1. Hold the base of the rain gauge flat against the mounting surface then use a level to make sure the
rain gauge (as it rest on the mounting surface) is horizontally level.
2. Use a pencil to trace the inside of the mounting holes on the base of the rain gauge to mark the
screw locations.
3. Drill a hole in the center of each marked location and insert the supplied plastic screw plugs
4. Hold the rain gauge against the mounting surface so the holes on the base are aligned with the
plugs, then thread the supplied washer head screws into each hole and use a screwdriver to tighten
them.
8. Installing additional remote thermo-hygrometer sensor(s)
Additional remote thermo-hygrometer sensors can be purchased separately (not supplied in the
package).
1. Select a location for the remote thermo-hygrometer that is within the effective transmission range of
50 meters (164 feet). Shorten the distance if obstacle is between the monitor & remote sensor.
2. Use a small screwdriver to loosen the screws on the battery door of the remote sensor. Insert 2
pieces of AAA batteries according to the polarity indicated.
3. Assign channel 2 or 3 to the remote sensor by setting the slide switch inside the battery
compartment. (Channel 1 is used by the anemometer and should not be assigned to the new
remote thermo-hygrometer)
4. Press "Tx" button inside the battery compartment of the remote sensor to transmit temperature &
humidity data to the monitor. Then close the battery door and tighten the screws.
5. Hold "CHANNEL/SEARCH" button on the monitor to search for all remote sensors. The
temperature & humidity readings of your selected channel number will be displayed on the monitor
if RF transmission is successful.
